took us a while to fully
recover from a very busy 2008, but we finally kicked off our 11th
year with a new tribute and the long-awaited new Frankenstein 3000 album. We also added a page listing every
artist and what release they appear on. Check it out here.
We're also providing you with 500px copies of album covers for your media player. We've started with the most recent releases and will work our way back. Click on the small version of the cover at the top of the album page for a larger copy. First up was It's
A Bird, It's A Plane... It's A Main Man Records Tribute To AC/DC Powerage. This might have been the fastest response
to a request for submissions we've ever gotten. Who knew Powerage was so many people's
favorite AC/DC album? We've got some
unique contributions on this one. Dennis Dunaway (Alice Cooper) worked
with Dimma, a band from
Frankenstein 3000’s third full-length CD, Where Do We Go From Here? was released on May 5, 2009. The new album reveals a great deal of growth for the band. Some songs showcase a poppier (but no less aggressive) sound while darker material exposes a side of the band not previously explored. Fans looking for the classic F3K sound won’t be disappointed, though. Check out the CD's page here for more information and a special offer. 2008
was a very exciting year at Main Man Records. We started off with
We Still Believe The Hype, a collection of Bad Biscut
rarities and our first single, Frankenstein 3000's
Goin' Away. It was also our 10th year and we celebrated that
with a "best of" called Twenty (so-named for our
20th release). Plus, Fabulous Disaster, the debut solo CD
from Shawn Mars and a Deluxe Edition of Bad
Biscut's The American Dream? were released last
spring.
Main Man Records continued our biggest year yet with some very hot releases. We ended the summer with Hair Apparent, our tribute to 80s hair bands. With the help of DJs Kim Mulligan (WDHA Weekend Warrior) and Keith Roth (WRAT's The Electric Ballroom), this compilation includes respectful renditions of some of your favorite glam metal classics. We were also proud to make available a collection from New Jersey power-pop quintet Hangar 18 called The Alien Highway. The third and final Bad Biscut collection, the unreleased Shag Abbey sessions, is also out. Our releases for the end of the year included a holiday compilation, Santa's Soundtrack For The Happenin' Holidaze, and a tribute to New Jersey college-rock legends Winter Hours, A Few Uneven Rhymes.
